iPhone 5 Users Can Stay in Perfect Synch With Their SherWeb Microsoft Hosted Exchange Account

Trusted Microsoft Partner Ready to Support New iPhone 5 Users Running Hosted Exchange 2010


MONTREAL, Sept. 21, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SherWeb, a world-leading Microsoft Hosted Exchange provider, today announced that its Hosted Exchange service is ready for the new Apple iPhone, which arrived in stores today.

The announcement will be welcome news to countless Apple fans who have been eagerly awaiting the release of the iOS 6, the new operating system included with the iPhone 5 that offers more streamlined email and calendar interfaces. Indeed, some users worried about being able to synchronize their device with their Microsoft Exchange account. Microsoft Exchange is the industry standard for business email and collaboration, allowing organizations to share calendars, contacts, folders and more with ease for improved productivity.

SherWeb, well-known in the industry for its tech-savvy Exchange expertise and strong customer-oriented approach, says it has already done the necessary tests of Apple's sync technology and is ready to support iPhone 5 users running Hosted Exchange 2010 and earlier versions. SherWeb also expects to be ready when Microsoft releases its much-anticipated Microsoft Exchange 2013, which it believes will be in the coming weeks.

"Apple fans are always eager to acquire the latest iPhone and it's important that our Hosted Exchange service be ready to ensure that they can stay in perfect synchronization with their Exchange account right from day one, regardless of the device used, be it an iPhone, an iPad, a laptop, or a desktop," explains Rima Hatoum, Product Manager at SherWeb. "With our Microsoft Hosted Exchange service, they'll be able to read and send emails, add and modify contacts and more without having to make any updates on other devices."

"Ultimately, the iPhone 5 is a small computer that can access Hosted MS Exchange anywhere, anytime," explains Jean Caron, Vice-President of Operations at SherWeb. "Our Hosted Exchange plans come with ActiveSync, the program required to allow iPhones and Exchange servers to connect seamlessly. ActiveSync makes synchronizing emails, contacts and calendar events incredibly easy. Also, it should be noted that iPhone (3G and later versions) and iPad (2nd and 3rd generations) users who install iOS 6 will also be able to synchronize their device with Exchange 2010 from SherWeb."
